Y&R: Episode discussion, week of January 18, 2010

Pretty much.

The Ed Grimley of Genoa City needs to die.

Yep.

TPTB are even propping characters from OTHER SHOWS over legacy characters.

Alison Stewart will be on Y&R when ATWT ends.

Watch.

[DeeeDee]

GO. AWAY. KEVIN.

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE.

[alphanguy74]

There you go!!! :lol:

But actually... today's final scene was the best in WEEKS. Beau and Jeanne play one of the best Mother/Son dynamics in, dare I say it... daytime history. for 35 years, I have never tired of watching these two. And of all soap opera characters created, Brock is indeed, the PERFECT man.

The writers are grasping at straws, looking for places to put Kevin. His time has come and gone. I think the show really needs to move on from him. Amber was a person who belonged there, and Amber is perfectly affable in Kay's orbit... where she doesn't seem so whiny and self-centered. And Frantz looked PRETTY today. Nice hair, and look how much BETTER she looked when she puts away the whore red lipstick and tones down her eye shadow. Her face is EASILY overwhelmed by makeup, and with her, less is DEFINITELY more, and as long as she dials it back on the war paint, Frantz is a perfectly lovely girl.

He has an excuse! The chipmunk made him do it!

[Juliajms]

Possibly the worst "story" ever.

[Toups]

Damn Smith for opening this can of worms.

LOL I've always wanted SuBe or Passions to spoof Maury's "You are NOT the father." But instead they both did Springer spoofs.

I'm so sick of DNA tests on this show.

Tell me about it! I hated Kevin being there too.

[DeeeDee]

Tom, Chipmunk, Gloria.

Ugh.

Kevin just needs to die.

[DeeeDee]

I LOATHE Amber but even she would've been better there than Kevin & THEN using HIM as a mouthpiece for KATHERINE'S grandchildren?

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATE.

[lovely_m]

After today the writers might make Billy BFF's with Kevin and Daniel.

I hope this new DNA test isn't being done by the people who said Jill was Kay's daughter and Cane Jill's son.

Well in all fairness, Kay would be dead if it wasn't for Kevin. The reason he was kidnapped was because he believed that Marge really was Kay and went to the motel to save her. Amber also has a special relationship with Katherine. The main reason for this I believe is that Jeanne Cooper loves Adrienne Frantz as well as Greg Rikkhart and so they are making them surrogate relatives to Katherine just like most of the people in that room. The only ones truly related to Kay is Mac and Brock.

I don't know why Kay even needed this gathering. I understood Neil, Michael, Nikki, Victor and Paul being there because they could help her legally or were involved in the manipulation, but to have everyone show up for support seems a bit much. She knows she is the Queen of Genoa City so her subjects need to leave her alone so she can figure out a way to get her company back.

MAB must love Kevin. He also was everywhere when Colleen died from her dream, then the hospital and finally her funeral while Lauren never attended her funeral but only was heard offscreen calling Tracy from and sending money to Colleen's favorite charity. Kevin also gets invited to all the family events.

[DeeeDee]

In all fairness, Kay wouldn't have believed she was LOSING HER MIND had KEVIN not gaslit her.

So he & his guilty conscience heroics can die in a fire.

Mackenzie, Chance, Billy & Chloe all had a right to be there.

Kevin not so much.

[DeeeDee]

Besides Fen's birth Michael/Lauren haven't had ONE story where Kevin isn't prominent.

Now that TPTB have made them Eden's babysitters Kevin's useless ass has to be shoehorned somewhere else so the serial rapist runs the local TEEN hangout while judging everyone.

SO. MUCH. HATE.

[lmfan]

That house is being overstuffed with people that don't need to be there because MAB loves all things Chancellor. I don't know why anyone needed to be there to gather when most of them are living there with her. It is overkill. Kay knows they support her. I don't see a need for an impromptu party to show her this.

[lmfan]

Hey I agree and it sucks but until MAB is out the best I can hope for is that she doesn't kill off Lauren and I get to see them on screen once in awhile. LML used them to prop Gloria and MAB uses them to prop Kevin amongst others. CLB and TEB are being completely wasted and have been since she took over. They didn't even have a story last year and in the two years MAB has been in control, the only story either had was Michael's father at the end of 2008 which ended up being more of a Gloria vehicle. last year was all about propping Kevin when they actually were on screen.

MAB likes Kevin and does not like Michael and Lauren so I doubt anything is going to change. Who knows, maybe her goal is to eliminate Michael and Lauren and make Kevin a part of the Chancellor family. Wouldn't shock me.
